Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise and odour
- highway safety and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to parking
What decided it
The Inspector could not be satisfied that the development provides adequate living conditions for nearby residents, as remaining adverse effects from noise and evening/night-time activity substantially outweighed the benefits to the community facility and town centre.
applying Policy S4 of the Framework, the substantial weight given to the benefits of community facilities and town centre vitality, and moderate weight to additional employment, were substantially outweighed by the adverse effects on neighbouring living conditions that could not be adequately mitigated by conditions alone.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy LP17Policy LP13Policy LP12
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
